The Southern Experience Begins...



We started to check off some of the things we wanted to experience while in the South. 

So Far on the List…

#1 Unclaimed Baggage Store –  A wonderful store where all the unclaimed baggage across America gets sent to.  It was much bigger than we expected and found a few good bargains…although it does seem a little weird there was so much used underwear for sale

#2 Jack Daniel Distillery­  -  We finally joined the long list of Williams’ Family members who have made the pilgrimage to Lynchburg TN.  Highlights included free lemonade, a mini blizzard outside,  visiting the shops downtown…and almost getting drunk off the air around the distillery. 



#3 Spending time with Christina and Andrew - One of the best things about living in the South is being closer to my Southern sister and bro-in-law.   So far we have been able to visit them in Huntsville and they have come seen us atop Lookout Mountain.  This weekend, we hiked to DeSoto Falls together, crawled through rocks, and saw Welsh Caves…which may show pre-Columbian settlement by Europeans- holy smokes.     

 

There are still many other things we want to do while down here, including visiting Mammoth Cave, sampling a mess of Crispy Cream donuts, a trip to Chattanooga, eating Chick-Fil-A, hiking some of the Appalachian Trail, and hopefully seeing much much more of Christina and Andrew!
